The New Jersey State Police are asking for the public’s help in finding the person who abandoned three dogs on the side of a Monmouth County road earlier this year.
The malnourished and neglected dogs were picked up by troopers on Jan. 23 in the area of Burlington Path Road and Emleys Hill Road in Upper Freehold Township, state police said in a statement.
The dogs were evaluated by North Star Vets and were placed in the care of Popcorn Park Animal Refuge, where they were cleaned up, cared for and later adopted, authorities said.
“While these dogs are now safe, we are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying their previous owner(s),” state police wrote in a statement.
Anyone who recognizes the dogs or knows who may have abandoned them was urged to contact the New Jersey State Police Troop “C” Hamilton Station Detective Bureau at 609-584-5000 Ext. 5286.
